Was static fit in the early to mid 90`s with one of those old ping carts. I was fit in Green Dot with plus half inch shaft. I also got the JZ shafts. I played those clubs up until last year. Then I went and got fit with the new in flight Ping. I have always had a slight fade to a slice in my swing. This past year I picked up a set of i20`s with KBS shafts in white dot. I have never hit the ball straighter. now my fade is returning with a hard slice from time to time. what am I doing wrong?:-O

Slice is usually a result of being too fast or trying to kill it.I struggle with it myself.It shows up on my fairway woods when I slice them too or chunk it cause I am trying to get those extra yards(overswinging)

I have really let the club do the work over the last few years. I never try to kill it unless I'm in some deep stuff. I'm leaning to be more of a "swinger of the club" rather than a "hitter of the ball". Over the last couple of days since my first post I have been working on "grip". I have found that the "V" in my left hand was pointing to the left side of my neck. I now have it pointed to my right shoulder. I have not changed my swing at all, just my grip. There flying alot straighter and a couple yards farther as well. The club head is just more square at impact.

No video, I'm headed for that next.

      Day 3: Worked on backswing. Feel: Matt Wolff, Real: Not yanking it inside and getting it laid off and flat at the top.

      I wrote the post before leaders tee'd off today (3rd round) when Schef was still tied with Fitz at -10. Also, if you read further I also said 'one man' will most probably put the championship to sleep by end of today..😊. Yeah, not much drama left it seems. Scheffler with a hot putter is out right frustrating for the field. I will still watch tomorrow because the course is awesome and the play is pretty exciting in general. Players reaching deep to hang on.

      Determining Out of Bounds

      Yea, it seems clear that if it isn’t marked or set by the committee it’s in bounds. Now, should you go trespassing to hit a ball. 😉

      I'd agree if you removed Scheffler. The best players in the world, by a mile, leading by four shots before Sunday isn't a dream setup for drama and entertainment.
